Issue
Better Questing party quest completion will not sync amongst players in the party. If I complete a quest, my friends in the party don't get that completion. It's like better questing doesn't realize we are in a party or something

Please update to 1.69 and see if it persists :)

[NovaBomber]

I do not see version 1.69 on CurseForge's website, GitHub, or in the twitch launcher. I may be missing something here.

Edit: It's definitely server-side, as on other servers it works. Is there something I'm missing in the config or something I need to do?

[NielsPilgaard]

Oh my bad, we will look into the issue :)

[NovaBomber]

I completely forgot to mention this, and I feel like I should, the server is my own; it's running off of my computer. I used the server files provided.

Edit: Did some more testing on my end with other modpacks; specifically, Enigmatica 2: Expert Skyblock and Project Ozone 3 A New Way Forward. The same issue happens on both of these mod packs. This leads me to believe that it's a problem with my computer; however, the cause remains a mystery to me. Something to note is I've hosted modpacks before, one of them being The GOG Remix, and never had a problem with Better Questing party sync; it wasn't that long ago either, only 3 months prior to today. The better questing version on that modpack was 3.5.281

[NielsPilgaard]

Is the BQ version in PO3 the same?

[NovaBomber]

They are indeed on the same version, 3.5.300

Edit: I went and tried an older version of Enigmatica 2: Expert, version 1.54 and discovered that party sync does work on that version. The better questing mod was on version 3.5.288. I'm gonna try other versions of the modpack to see if I can narrow down which version of better questing that the problem started in.

Edit2: Party sync appears to not work on version 1.60 either. The better questing for that version is 3.5.296

[NielsPilgaard]

Would you mind updating to the latest BQ version and check that? :)

[NovaBomber]

I updated to the latest version, 3.5.309 and it appears to still not work.

[NielsPilgaard]

Did you also update Standard Expansion btw?

[NielsPilgaard]

Funwayguy/BetterQuesting#553 Linking for good meassure, have not re-opened yet.

[NielsPilgaard]

Found this in changelogs:

- Shared party progression is currently not active. Functionality will return in a later build in a new form. Existing progress will be honoured however it will revert back to individual input.

[NovaBomber]

My friends and I decided to play an earlier version of the modpack, version 1.54, which allows party progression. Hopefully, it's added back soon.

Anyone is able to help me too? Having the same Proble as NovaBomber. Im on a Nitrado Server with Friends and ive already completed multiple quests, but if a friend joins my Team in the Quest Book, the Quests doesnt sync for him. Would be nice if anyone could help me!!

[NielsPilgaard]

That is intended behaviour, you need to be online and in the same team at the same time for quests to sync.

[Yoshy2002]

We are definitely online at the same time and in the same Team and Quest Party, but it still doesnt work for us.

[NielsPilgaard]

Quests you complete while your team mates are online don't sync?

[ar1a]

can confirm, quests don't sync with both of us online and completed while both are online

[NielsPilgaard]

Could you please try syncing the clocks on the server and your PCs? :)

[ar1a]

done that, initially only 2s off but we both synced and got a new achievement and nothing was synced. open to LAN server, not dedicated

There have been issues with BetterQuesting progress not synchronizing properly on LAN setups. @ar1a which version are you playing on? This issue has been reported a while back (see Funwayguy/BetterQuesting#657) and has since been resolved (as far as I know).

If you are also on 1.68, please update to the latest version and see if the issue persists; if it does, please give us some more information and we can continue to investigate from there.

[NielsPilgaard]

The issue should still exist in 1.75, I haven't updated to latest BQ yet.

[ar1a]

i'm on 1.75b

if it helps at all, on one of the quests i couldn't even claim my reward, just kept hitting claim and nothing happened. possibly related, but if not i don't want to distract this issue with it.
